Have to admit gin is the last spirit I added to my home bar and idk how I feel about it. Ive had everything else for a while but the taste of gin is so starkly differnt from some of those other classic cocktails

Same here, and i didn't like it at first. Once i started making good gin drinks for others and as i sampled them, it grew on me.

[@genebigs]

Martini drinker here. I agree with you. I love Hendrick's, but I agree with you wholeheartedly: after drinking many gins over the years, Beefeater is still the ONE gin I would choose if I could only drink one for the rest of my life! Delicious, complex, yet smooth and subtle...a true masterpiece of ginmaking! Thanks for a great video! You have a new subscriber!

[@ethakis]

My first taste of Gin was Bombay Sapphire, neat straight from the bottle as I was raiding my parent's liquor cabinet. My brother and I both agreed at the time that it was perhaps the worst alcohol we'd ever tried. Years later, after getting tired of nothing but vodka and shitty rum I decided to try Gin. I began with Gray's Peak, which though I didn't feel it was anything special, was thrilled to find it was far more enjoyable to me than the Bombay Sapphire. I then tried Beef Eater and my god was that a treat. Beef Eater made me decide that Gin was something well worth getting into. I'm now on my third Gin which is Aviation though I find it a pleasant drink to sip, I miss many of the elements of a more traditional gin such as Beefeater. I'm thinking that next I will try either Hampstead or Tanqueray.

[@alemar1122]

Tanqueray is my favourite... then they came out with the Royale (with current) and I must say it was like my heart opened in a whole new way to this spirit

Good introduction to gin. In the last couple of years I've got through Gordons, Greenhalls, Bombay Sapphire and currently Tanquerary which I think is the most floral and would win my vote. Seems like I need to give Beefeater a go and btw this is the first, and last time I've ever smashed a man's subscribed button :-)

Hey Diddy1970AD 😂😂😂😂 Well I’m honoured that you chose to smash it! That sounds pretty much like my gin journey.

It’s available almost everywhere and you just can’t go wrong. Really glad to have you on board and let me know what you think of Beefeater 👍

Hey Bobby. I’m from the U. S. I retired in December, so obviously I’m an old guy. I’ve never been a gin drinker, I’ve hardly been a liquor drinker. But, I wanted to try different things so I picked up a gin, Bombay Sapphire. Not being a gin drinker, I liked it. Then I found you and subscribed (I smashed that button). I went to Tanqueray. It was much better. I saw your review of Hendricks, so I tried it and agreed, sort of like perfume was added to it with cucumber. I’ve tried New Amsterdam. I liked it. Very crisp and clean. Next is Beefeaters. Looking forward to it. I haven’t found Sipsmith. But I’m looking. I really appreciate your channel, keep going. PS Fever Tree is the best tonic, as you said.

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

So glad I found you. I've been intrigued by gin ever since I started cooking with juniper berries, and just bought my first bottle. Unfortunately, the first bottle I bought was a Bombay Sapphire, lol - which I agree (from reviewing your other videos) has a certain unpleasant chemical quality to its taste ( I was just so attracted to the beautiful advertisements and glorious blue bottles). Gonna go with a Beefeater or Tanqueray next time. Thanks, sir!

Cucumber actually complements citrus flavors. It makes more sense than you think. But of course as the whiskey tribe guys say... The one you like drinking and the way you like to drink it :)

[@yopdart4197]

Great channel. Very informative and with a good delivery. I've never seen nor heard of Hampstead so, thank you, I'm going to look for it. I agree with you on Beefeater, it's my always go to Gin. I can't say that I feel the same way about Tanqueray, I find the juniper notes to be a little overwhelming. I've had Hendricks and that I can agree on. That it being infused with cucumber well, let's just say that it can make for a horrendous dry martini.

[@scathson]

Enthusiastic and informative I have only been into gin for less than a year and have purchased many different brands from both supermarkets and liquor stores - have never purchased Beefeater because of the low price but will be giving it a go - Really like Hendricks but it is around $50 here - anyway, Gin is competing nicely with my go to of Grand Marnier I do use FeverTree as Schweppes is basically corn syrup in the states - got fooled by the yellow label for the lemon FeverTree (which is close to the color of the regular bottle) which i found "yucky" - accidentally bought the "light" version too which i'm almost afraid to try - definitely checking the labels more carefully now

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Thanks for you comment scathson and welcome to the word of gin! Yes, definitely try the Beefeater, you will love it! Sadly, I too have fallen fowl of the labels on Fever Tree. That lemon one is very strange and the less said about the sugar free the better!

[@lars2894]

I'd like to know how "bottom-shelf" brands like Gordons, Gilbeys, Burnetts and Seagrams compare to something more standard like Tanqueray and Bombay! Am I missing out by buying a London Dry style Gin from Gillbey's brand which is 1/2 the price of the Bombay brand?

If good gin is to be diluted with anything other than an olive, onion, or a twist, then an outstanding tonic may suffice. Wonderful content. Thanks for the lessons!

[@christinecamley]

Bobby I am fairly new to Gin and am I ever having a blast!!! You are right on that if there was one Gin to hold on to if I could only have one - it would now be Beefeater - huge competition for me with Tanqueray for that one Gin I'd choose if I could have only one Gin from here on in. I do like Hendrick's, I have one had the one you are featuring today, and not the other Hendrick's releases - one is very new. I am in Vancouver, Canada and have paid $80.00 and $100.00 for a well known, superb Gin - excellent reputation and reviews - but hey, I can pay much less - the Beefeater and the Tanqueray - bottle sizes you have here - are both $23.95 pretty much anywhere - government or private spirit and wine stores. I am enjoying Martinis, very dry and I do like a strong punch of Juniper. A citrus element is also something I love and it's lovely to taste that in the Beefeater. The Tanqueray is limited to 4 botanicals - I think! I better so check!! This video is so instructive and hugely entertaining! You have terrific knowledge and humour!! I am enjoying your videos very much!! Cheers!!! 🙂

[@masterhumbel]

I really like your videos, just found them and will return for sure. My favourites are: Tanqueray or Beefeater for Gin & Tonic Tanqueray 10 or Brokers 47% for a Dry Martini When I'm on a budget I really like Bleu D'argent. Its taste is clean and it is even cheaper than Gordons.

[@Chino50863486]

Hi Bobby! Just came across your channel today I am loving it. Can you consider making a video about how to better appreciate/taste gins? Since in my case, as long as it is a reasonably good gin, they all taste kind of the same to me. (With the exception of Hendrick's, that has a strong floral note. And gordon's, which smells like water compared to the rest I have tried.) For example, tanqueray/bombay sapphire/beefeater taste similar unless I compare them side by side. When mixed in drinks, I can't distinguish them.

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Hi GuYuan Yu, Welcome to my channel! Thanks for the comment. What a very interesting question. It's all about finding the right balance for you. Personally, with neat gin agree with you, I find many quite similar. With mixers it's important to to put too much. A good tonic should release the flavours from the gin. A lot of gin tasters drink neat gin but with a tiny bit of water in as that too releases the flavours of the gin. The best advice I can give is to have a play around and see what works best for you. In the meantime, I shall definitely put this on my list of videos 👍

For some reason, being a whiskey and rum drinker, I find gin to be too... Weird tasting.. I've had Bombay Sapphire and Beefeater only till date. And both when I've had them neat or with some lemon juice, tasted funky. The gin and tonic I had in bars were super awesome. Infact, the cocktails didn't feel like they had any alcohol in them at all. I could've gulped it all down in one go. But when I make it at home - with lemon juice and sugar and some soda, the result isn't the same. Plus it's hars to get tonic water easily in India where I live.

As soon when he said that these are his favorite gins I knew I've had come to the wrong channel

Hey Hampus Hagland! That’s very interesting. What would be your favourite gin line up? I’m always interested to hear peoples thoughts when they disagree with me 😊 Hopefully I can win you around with some of my other videos! 👍

@@nononsensegindrinking5152 Feels like you took the most basic gins you could find. Beefeater is a shitgin to be honest. Hendricks is cool but everybody drinks that where I'm from so for me that gin is outdated. tanqueray export strength is nice as well but I don't understand why you would choose that one before tanqueray 10 wich is more elegant and fresher. And Fever-tree tonic is very nice indeed but I wouldn't use it for every gin you set up on your table. The point with tonic is to bring out the flavors from the gin. But it's a nice review video

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Hampus Haglund I totally see where you’re coming from. The video was meant to be a beginners guide so I chose what I feel are the entry level gins for someone who hasn’t tried gin before. I agree with you about the Tanqueray. I prefer the export strength. I suppose I wanted beginners to try these first before moving on to the really good stuff. Perhaps that’s a good idea for another video?? Any way, I hope you stick around. You clearly know what you’re talking about and it’s always good to be pulled up on things 👍😊

"Sipsmith is quite easily available..." Not in the US. You can't even find it in well stocked stores. Also... that Fever Tree tonic is more expensive than some gins.

I really like your videos, just found them and will return for sure. My favourites are: Tanqueray or Beefeater for Gin & Tonic Tanqueray 10 or Brokers 47% for a Dry Martini When I'm on a budget I really like Bleu D'argent. Its taste is clean and it is even cheaper than Gordons.

Hendricks is my favorite gin
